2006 Cornas Vieilles Vignes, Alain Voge

2006 Cornas Vieilles Vignes, Alain Voge

Ref: VOGE060
Red  |  Still  |  13.5% ABV

Alain Voge took over his parents' domaine on the death of his father in 1965. A great many people were selling up in Cornas at that time as wine production didn't pay the bills in this backwater commune (as it was then). Yet Alain drove the domaine forward with an obsession for quality that has placed Domaine Alain Voge right at the top the the northern Rhône hierarchy.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes

"Deep ruby with soft rim. Sweet and succulent with dark fruit. Sweet but not overly so – still such youthful and primary fruit aromas on an 11-year-old wine. Pepper and spice and all things nice. Still nicely chewy on the finish but with the fruit to fill out the core. A rich, chewy and satisfying youngster with just the start of a more leathery, complex maturity."  Julia Harding MW in 2017

Sweetness Explained
Sweetness Explained

Sweetness

All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab. 

Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
